High-Sensitivity and High-Performance Determination of Trace Aluminum in Water for Pharmaceutical Purposes by Microwave Plasma and Inductively Coupled Plasma-Atomic Emission Spectrometry
Procedures for the determination of aluminum in water for injections (Aqua ad iniectabilia) and high-purity water (Aqua valde purificata) at a level of several µg L −1 using atomic-emission spectrometry with a novel microwave plasma (MP-AES) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP-AES) are proposed.

using atomic-emission spectrometry with a novel microwave plasma (MP-AES) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP-AES) are proposed. Regardless of the atomic-emission technique used, the procedure for aluminum needs no sample preparation (acidification only), no preconcentration, shows high sensitivity (limits of detection of 0.4 and 0.7 µg L
